You are very generous in listening and responding to the many comments! Not all creators take the time to do this,answering questions and what not. Great job!
Thanks for your comment. I'm not sure how I missed this one, but I do appreciate it!
What a beautiful board. Also may I say how refreshing to see such a quality video showing in real time rather than, as so many on RUclips, have speeded up ones. Awaiting delivery of my Drum Sander & can’t wait to start making. Thank you for your inspiration.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! Good luck on your projects, the drum sander will come in very handy. It is the best addition I’ve made to my shop.
All I can say is “WOW!” Beautiful.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. You got this!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
That's not a cutting board....that is a masterpiece artwork sir!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Thats one of the best cutting board vids I've ever watched. Awesome. And I did watch both parts.
Thanks David for the kind comments and for stopping by to watch the videos. I was going for detailed in this video and decided to break it up into two parts. It's interesting how many more views part 1 gets than part 2 because part 2 is where you get to see the payoff. With this in mind the next video I did, "The Handcrafted Chessboard" I decided not to break it up into 2 parts but it was around 45 minutes long so not sure that was a good idea. Guess you have to try different things to see what works and what doesn't. Thanks again.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking I agree with David, and don't let the time thing discourage your video making. I would rather watch a video like this than watch a 2 hour movie on TV any day. In fact I have been watching a ton of cutting board videos lately and I find I enjoy yours over everyone else's.... very pleasant and informative. Thanks for sharing!
@@bodean2000 Thanks for the feedback on the videos. I've got a premiere coming up this Thursday for and end grain American Flag cutting board with CNC routered stars filled with colored epoxy. It's a two videos, but they'll both be available on Thursday. Appreciate the comments and compliments.
I love the fact that you put your branding on the bottom and not the top! Keeps it nice and clean!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Loved every part of this tutorial. Thank you.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I was afraid that it was getting too long so decided to break it up into two parts. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Stunning, stunning and stunning. Can’t wait to start the project. Great tutorial.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
The boarder makes it look a lot better once shining.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm not sure how I missed your comment, but I do appreciate it!
Hi from an Australian Woodworker.
Great cutting board and I like the background music.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm glad you found my channel. I've also subscribed to your channel. You've got great videos of some awesome work!
Thanks for highlighting the sawdust filling method. Great video and an awesome teacher!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Fantastic job on the boards and the videos! Thank you so much for the time and effort you put into providing such exceptional content. Your work is outstanding and the delivery of information is top notch. Thank you again and God Bless.
Mark, thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I appreciate your comment and compliments.
Darrell, this project came out gorgeous and your voiceover is oddly soothing! 🙂 You make it look way easier than it is.
Hey Lindsay, good to hear from you! I'm not sure anyone really likes the sound of their own voice, but if it at least came out somewhat soothing then I'm good with that. It's only the second video that I have done a voice over, but I'm gotten some good compliments from describing the process, etc. so I think I'll continue to do them. I'm trying to do something different every few videos so that they don't get boring. Anyway, good to hear from you and for watching and commenting. Hope you're doing well!
I agree. I'm thinking Kevin Costner's voice in Dances with Wolves which is great as I've watched it many times, so calming. Thanks for the video, from Lincolnshire, England.
@@nanookmoose One of my favorite movies, so I'll definitely take that as a compliment. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
SPECTACULAR! Is a piece of art. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for stopping by to watch the videos and to take the time to comment. This one was a true labor of love and was completely happy with the end results. I love it when that happens!
Thank you so much for simplifying this process and for providing the wood dimensions. I will be making one very soon. Thanks again!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! Good luck on the build.
This one was really helpful! Appreciate you taking time at each step!
Sorry for the late reply, I've been on a short vacation. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
The boarder makes it look amazing! Beautiful cutting board!!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I do like the effect of the border against the 3D pattern, but I have had several point out that over time the border could separate due to its cross grain orientation. We'll see, and I've asked the owner to let me know if he sees any issues arise.
Great build. Awesome video.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and commenting, it is much appreciated.
Beautiful work, and i greatly appreciate keeping the sawing sounds off, and giving quiet precise explanations. Excellent all around.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I appreciate your comments on the way the video was presented. I've done several of these now and in a lot of cases just provided background music and no commentary. I haven't included the tool and shop noises in any of my previous videos because there are other ambient noises in my work area (i.e. furnace, hot water heater, etc.). As I've changed my videos over the past couple of years I finally decided to narrate a few and had good, positive comments. Sometimes you just have to try a few different techniques to see what works and what doesn't. Again, appreciate the comment.
I do the same thing, except I collect my dust when sanding projects of the same type of wood. I store the dust in used margarine tubs labeled for use down the road.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm not sure how much sanding dust I let go to waste before I started collecting some of it for things like this. I've got quite a collection now, and it has served me well over the years.
Great job. Beautiful board.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Appreciate it!
Beautiful work love your boards
Sorry for the late reply, I've been on a short vacation. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video. I appreciate the comment and compliments.
Absolutely beautiful! I hope the recipient of this board appreciates all the hard work and skill that you put into the creation.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. In this particular case, the owner of the board is very appreciative and has put this board on display on their kitchen island. He also takes good care to oil and condition the board on a regular basis. That goes a long way in the longevity of the board itself.
Beautiful cutting board. I learned so much. Thanks.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Learning is what we're all here for, glad you liked it.
Beautiful cutting board! Absolutely love the 3D effect! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and commented. I gave you a subscribe myself. Just getting into CNC and laser with a small desktop model. I used it to laser burn the alphanumeric characters on the chessboard video that I recently posted. Getting ready to attempt my first CNC inlay in a cutting board. Crossing fingers.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking Thank you so much! I truly do appreciate it. Keep up the great work.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking I think you are going to really enjoy the CNC. I am sure with your talent it is going to open up a whole new avenue of creativity.
Beautiful work!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Thanks so much for your informative video's and appreciate the helpful hints on how to fill the voids. Just finished my first one that was a gift for my wife. Had a stressfully great time making it and will definitely make more.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it. Now that you've made one, hopefully the next one will be a little easier, and the next one even more.
Well done! Just completed this build…
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. If you want to share pics of your project, you can send them to: dejaegerwoodworking@gmail.com I'd love to see them!
Can't thank you enough for the excellent attention to detail in your explanation. There are many great woodworkers and many great teachers but a rare few , such as you , are highly skilled in both disciplines . Can't wait to try this incredible looking piece.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I do appreciate the high praise, but I'm certainly no pro. Like you, I've watched a lot of video from woodworkers and taken a lot of tips and tricks from other before me. If I've provided some motivation, or a technique that helps you, I'm certainly glad for it. We're all here to learn. Thanks again.
This is a gorgeous build. I just got a job at a cabinet shop a few months and I'm absolutely hooked on woodworking now. I'm going to attempt this pattern on a 4'x4' frame that will be used to display patches. I can't wait to get started!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it. This pattern can be used in a multitude of ways. I've made this pattern as a lazy susan, cutting board, etc. but you can certainly expand on it and even make it into a table top if you wanted. It's a fun pattern and is always eye-catching.
Darrell,
You are obviously a fine woodworker, videographer, and teacher. Your explanations are crystal clear, and I have really enjoyed your videos to the max. The only suggestion I would make is that you might want to consider using end grain wood for your border. I know the edge grain is quicker, and looks nice because you can see the grain of that wood. However, I do believe that there may be an issue with cracking in the future. Having made about 200 cutting boards, I can tell you that the only cutting boards that fell apart on me (that I am aware of!) were boards that had mixed end grain and edge grain. Please consider using my mistakes for the benefit of all.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Yeah, I've taken some guff for the cross grain glue up on the larger board. It was a last minute decision to even put a border on the larger one, and I also got a lot of folks wanting to know why I didn't miter the corners. :) Anyway, I do get it. Part of this decision was knowing that the person I made it for uses it as a counter decoration and never plans to cut on it. Another comment I received quite a bit. Knowing it wouldn't be subject to the normal moisture exposure, I let this one slide. Still, there is the possibility of ambient moisture in the room affecting the board, but I have asked the owner to let me know if he sees any separation, splitting, etc. So far, so good. Thanks again for your comment.
OMG...those boards are beautifully awesome 👌
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Your voice is such a pleasure to listen to, and it really has such a soothing tone to it. The soft music fits in really well along with your voice.
Excellent craftsmanship here.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I appreciate all of the positive feedback. Most people don't like the sound of their recorded voice, and I have to say the same, but I've had a number of comments about the soothing tone of it. Glad it is well received. I do spend a decent amount of time on the script for my videos, and try to keep the same cadence, volume and delivery on an equal level. I too like the soft background music for when I'm not talking. I use Chris Haugen's music a lot because of it's laid back, easy going flow. Thanks again for the kind comments.
I really enjoyed your video but I've subscribed because you were kind enough to include all necessary details to complete this beautiful board. I'm very excited about this next challenge! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Thanks for the kind words and the subscription. Good luck on the project!
Your channel reminds me of the times I used to watch "this old house" or "New York Yankee workshop" definitely gonna try this project. Amazing work and vid and commentary !! Thank you! 🙌
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I love the comment and take it as a compliment. I was a huge fan of both of those shows (back in the day), along with Bob Ross painting. I'm glad the commentary is helpful, and inspires anyone to try the projects that I post on my RUclips channel. Again, appreciate your comments.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking Bob Ross former drill sergeant turned PBS painter making happy little trees 🌲. 🙌 he’s the man. Definitely another source of inspiration. Again Thanks for the vid!
Great work! 👍
But I would never use such an amazing cutting board.
I would hang it on my wall and watch it every day 🤣
Thanks so much for watching and commenting. I know, I know... but if I keep all of my projects I wouldn't have any place to put them. I'm pretty protective of them, but once I've sold them then I can let them go. I just try to keep notes on what went well and what went wrong so I can do it better the next time. It's always fun to try something completely different to just to see if I can do it. Believe me, I've had some real stinkers along the way, but that's how you learn.
Truly a classic work of art. I too would never cut on it but it would make a great conversation piece!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I've had several projects where I thought the same thing, they're just too nice to cut or sell, etc. but I can't keep them all. I've had several viewers also make a case for using this pattern in other projects. Someone had suggested creating a bowl blank and turning it, which I too thought would make for an interesting project.
I really enjoyed it .Have been woodworking for over 40yrs and still want to learn more . I made cutting boards 3 years ago
from a pattern for quilting on wood . It tuned out very well. ,But now i want to try 3D.Thank you so much . Julien Lamarche
Congrats on 40 years in woodworking. I'm sure you've got a lot that you can teach us. I continue to learn every day. Watching videos of what others are doing with wood inspire a lot of the projects that I'm working on now. I never would have thought to attempt any of them, but after watching others you can find some great tips and tricks. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
They look cool.....well done...
Sorry for the late reply, I've been on a short vacation. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video. I appreciate the comment and compliment.
I know this is an older video but I found by gluing both sides of the wood further eliminates those little voids. It does make for a little more cleanup of squeeze out but I find it well worth it. Great work!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm getting ready to make another one of these boards for a customer, so will definitely try gluing both sides. A little more glue could equal less time filling voids.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking In the words of King's Fine Woodworking.... you can never use too much glue! lol
Great outcome and an extremely well done and helpful video. Thank you.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Amazing pattern design, Good workmanship.
Thanks for stopping by to watch and comment on this video. I've watched many of the 3D cutting board videos on RUclips and have always wanted to try one. I would definitely make this board again.
Gorgeous!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Wow what an awesome cutting board. I have not yet made one and this only makes me want to get started that much more
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. It is a very satisfying project. Good luck!
I need to go try this, like right now!!. Amazing, and beautiful.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I've had several viewers send me pictures of their version of this cutting board. It really is a cool design.
Very nice attention to detail!
Thanks so much for watching the video and commenting. It definitely was a project that I took my time on. So many spots along the way where this could have gotten out of control. Ultimately it paid off.
Wow absolutely amazing ,you my sir have pure talent for woodworking.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! I still consider myself an amateur weekend warrior when it comes to woodworking, but I learn by watching other videos, and through lots of trial and error.
Thanks so much for that instruction. I feel I can do one now. Also, I'd love to see that 3D incorporated into a coffee table top or on the legs of the coffee table.
Thanks for your time.
Sorry for the late reply, I've been on a short vacation. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I've had several viewers also make a case for using this pattern in other projects. Someone had suggested creating a bowl blank and turning it, which I too thought would make for an interesting project. I agree, a table top or counter would be equally stunning. Thanks again for your comments.
thank you!!! Very stunning... great tips
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Stunning !
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video, and for the nice comment!
@@DEJaegerWoodworking You're welcome. It is seriously awesome, I take my hat off to you.
I think I like the effect of the borderless better… the one with the border looks like a picture of a really nice 3D cutting board. The borderless one makes me check reality. Both are masterpieces. Thank you for your informational video ❤️
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! I'm in agreement. I like seeing the different exposed edges on the one without the border. It gives it a little more character.
Fantastic idea - thanks for sharing your techniques - very kind. I just think the rubber feet really spoil a perfect product.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! Unfortunately the feet were at the customer's request. I fully understand.
3:49 Takes me back to my college days.....
Ha! Had to fast forward to it to see what I could have done. Hopefully your scraper wasn't that big back in the day. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
What an incredible piece of craftsmanship you made. Aside from the very detailed step by step explanation, the sound of your voice and background music was so soothing to hear. I really enjoyed watching this and look forward to other videos as I am a new subscriber.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I can't say I've ever really like hearing my recorded voice. I never think that it sounds like me at all, so I've always been apprehensive to narrate my videos. I decided to change that with this and a couple of other videos, so glad you like it. I guess if I'm trying to provide the amount of detail in the video there really isn't any other way to do it unless I wanted to do a lot of captioning. Thanks again for watching.
Thankyou for a great educational video, I am going to make some tomorrow
Awesome! If you have some pictures or video of your project, please share. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
I have rcently started using Starbond CA glue, along with the dust from wood, to fill gaps. When used with the accelerator, it dries immediately, and you can continue with your sanding. Amazing stuff! Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I've used CA glue with sawdust before, but typically avoid it for projects where food will come in contact with it. I'm not sure of CA glue's food safe qualities.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking There is such a small amount of glue in the voids, I doubt it would be harmful, and any on the top of the board is sanded off. Starbond even comes in colors, so the dust wouldn't be necessary. Again, very good video!
just amaizing my brother!!!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I appreciate the kind words!
VERY NICE!!!
Sorry for the late reply, I've been on a short vacation. Thanks for stopping by to watch the video. I appreciate the comment and compliment.
lovely work 😀
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Awesome videos. Easy to follow and very instructive.........Guess what my Son is getting for Christmas
Hey Richard, thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Excellent idea on giving this one as a gift. It's a gift that looks impressive, but really isn't too difficult to pull off (not that they need to know that). I find myself each year giving more and more of my wood working projects as gifts, or being asked to make gifts for others to give. I've got a little more video and audio editing to do on a handcrafted chess board which I'm hoping to post before Thanksgiving. It will make a great gift for someone this year!
That is the best looking cutting board. I have watch both video. I am making the same. But in my case, after i wet the board the first time, it warped. So i’m back to the drum sander right now making it true again. I can’t keep it warped after all that work. And it is all worth it. Thanks.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I've had some other woodworkers comment that you only need to wet the surface before the last sanding level, but I've always done it in between each sanding grit. While this video shows rinsing it with water, on my newer projects I now just use a spray bottle of water and lightly apply to raise the grain. You might try that to prevent warping.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking good idea. I’ll try that. Thanks
In quilting, this is called the Attic Window pattern. Awesome job.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I am currently working on a Lemoyne Star type of pattern for a cutting board. I'm not sure if I can pull it off, but if I can it should be pretty awesome.
Beautiful
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Beautiful project, love the detail & finish.
First time I saw one of these being made, to fill void, the guy used a vacuum hose to suck the glue/dust mix into the void from the other side. Otherwise you have approx .5mm fill that can wear out with use & cleaning.
John, you are BRILLIANT! Thanks for such a great tip to get the saw dust into the void. I'm not sure I would have ever thought to do that, but will definitely do it the next time I have voids.
I really like this. I'll watch the videos at least twice more before I get started. I happen to have the same three species in stock. I also have some purpleheart and padauk that might substitute nicely for the walnut.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. Please share your project after you're done. I'd love to see it, especially if you substitute some of the woods. I think you'd get some really vivid definitions of the 3D effect with those woods.
I made some cutting boards with padauk, but when putting finish on the oil in the Padauk comes out and go onto the Maple. How to stop this from spreading? Thanks.
Thank you!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video. I hope you enjoyed it.
Beautiful .The only thing I have changed is to make the border end grain as well; I have found the edge grain border will show knife makes and, in the worst case, splinters.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! The other issue with the border not being arranged end-grain (and it has been pointed out to me plenty), is that it may end up splitting along those lines. Fortunately, I know the owner is not using it for a day to day cutting board and takes the proper care in oiling and conditioning it, etc.
I got the feeling soneone gonna loose a finger using this chopping board. So mesmerizing !
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm not sure how I missed your comment, but I do appreciate it!
Very nice.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
I like that a lot.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Thanks for the great video, I’m gonna make one now. Wish me luck!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I'm not sure how I missed your comment, but I do appreciate it!
@@DEJaegerWoodworking Update, I made one since commenting on your video, it came out great. But you were right, it took a lot of clamps, and a lot of patience! 👍
@@123erinnc6 If you have pics, I'd love to see them. You can email me at: dejaegerwoodworking@gmail.com
Really cool. I prefer Howards Wax-it-all for my finishing coat. Makes my boards super smooth and adds a matte finish.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I’ve played around with a couple of conditioners. I’ll have to give that one a try.
For clamping the smaller sections here’s an idea: make a “c channel out of straight hard wood or MDF or any good smooth plywood. Size it so the four piece assembly fits in exactly. Then make a separate piece that fits on top, enclosing the whole piece on all four sides. This will act as a cull and keep things aligned. Clamp along the sides and separately on the perpendicular still with adequate clamps but it will all stay aligned better. The thicker and flatter the outside pieces should help distribute the clamping force more evenly. Just a thought.
I do appreciate the idea. I have created a few jigs for projects. Check out the Honeycomb Cutting board video on my channel. I think your suggestion would definitely be worth pursuing, especially if I were making a lot of this particular type of board.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking I actually watched that one as well. Pretty much what I was thinking. I haven’t done one like this yet so am also trying to imagine how I’d approach it. Honeycomb one is really cool too.
Looks fantastic. You are right - the cutting and aligning needs to be perfect to get the effect. This looks very 3-D!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Yeah, I was a bit worried when tackling this one. You can really get into trouble with alignment issues when you start cutting wood at an angle. I'm working on a chess board right now, and believe me you have to really take your time if you want those squares to line up perfectly. Getting close to uploading that video. Hope you'll stop by to take a look at it.
Pretty cute visual effect.
Thanks for the comment, and for stopping by to watch the video, Mark. It's a pattern that I've seen others do, and have always wanted to attempt it. There's lots of creative minds out there with different patterns that I hope to try.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking It may be obvious to you now but the crucial bit is to get your mitered edges to add up to 90 degrees and keep them in place during the glue-up. This is a pattern I've never tried but will if I ever gain that confidence in the accuracy of my rips.
@@markkoons7488 So true. All of it adds or detracts from the final project. I had posted to another viewer that I replaced my table saw blade after this project was done, but wish I had done it before as it would have made even more difference in the way the different pieces assembled in the glue up. We're all learning, and hopefully we learn from our mistakes. Good tools and good practices make all the difference.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking Yes, and a uniform feed rate helps avoid the blade's flutter. I think that realization, the fluttering blade, is the real reason people move toward more powerful saws as they are able though I knew a professional who bought a new Delta saw during WW-II which was available in a 3/4 Hp version. He kept his HS steel blades sharp and fed the saw at an steady rate. That saw produced fine work for him into the early '80s.
Beautiful cutting board! You have a new subscriber........ 👍👍😉😉
Always glad to have another subscriber! Thanks so much for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Stay tuned for my next project which should be uploaded in the coming weeks.
A little pro tip for ya, if you heat up the Howard’s butcher block conditioner, it will Melt the wax, and allow it to penetrate deeper into the wood and harden, giving better protection for the butcher block over the long term. Nice board great videos!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Awesome tip, thanks! I'll definitely give that a shot on the next board. I've got an American Flag cutting board just about done so will try this technique!
@@DEJaegerWoodworking I’m looking forward to the next vid, I usually just put a little bit on and use a heat gun to heat it up, great technique I learned years ago, keep up the good work!
@@JP-kp9bg Look for the tip in next video. I'll give you a credit nod in the video as well.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking sure will! great quality videos! I’m subbed and will be looking forward to it 🙂
Can i chop on it?
Nooo I wouldn’t do it.
Beautiful piece of art,both videos are great.
Thank you!!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Appreciate the compliments, but hope that the person I created it for is using it every day. Sometimes these projects do look a bit too nice to use, but as long as they are enjoyed in some fashion, I'm happy.
Great concept, I'm gonna add this to my to do list. Have been making a walnut/maple cutting board as gifts for a while now and have a quick system down for making them. This will be fun. My only concern is using an open grain wood like oak for and end grain board.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it! I would definitely switch out the oak for cherry if I had this one to do over. I agree the oak can be a little porous. The owner of this board is religious about his oiling and conditioning of the board and he uses it more as a display piece rather than a actual cutting board so it will probably be fine. The other thing I would advise is to orient the border end grain as well, or leave the border off completely. You'll get a nice cascade effect along the edges that way.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking Yeah I'd love to use cherry. Good idea.
@@paulharrison3651 Really just any other contrasting hardwood is fine, but cherry kind of fits the domestic trifecta or walnut, maple and cherry.
Damn that’s insane
Wow, Beautiful work you did and thanks for sharing. It makes me want to make one which I will in the near future. George Sylvestre
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. It was a fun project that turned out quite a bit better than I really expected. Definitely give it a go!
You are very talented !! I have some walnut white oak and pecan. I will do my best to repeat your skills
Hey Mike, thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I had watched several videos on making this type of 3D board until I could the technique that I liked and thought I could replicate the best. In hind sight I wish I would have replaced my table saw blade before starting this project. It was a little dull and caused the 45 degree cuts at the beginning of part 1 to be a little more difficult than they really needed to be. I did replace the blade shortly there after with a very nice Freud thin kerf blade which now cuts like butter. As I said at the very beginning the cuts, measurements and glue up need some extra time so that the pattern at the end stay consistent. Let me know when you've got the board completed so I can stop by to watch.
good work
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
So nice
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it!
Just subscribed to your channel great work
Thanks Malik for stopping by to watch the videos and subscribe. Appreciate it!
At minute 7:52 your palm sander looks very judgmental that you are sanding by hand 😆 beautiful work!!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I was curious, so I fast forwarded to that mark. Ha! Ha! it does look as though the sander has a facial expression. It's great that you caught that! Thanks for sharing.
Nice Build. ;- )
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment.
Definitely one of the coolest wood working projects I have ever seen. Just curious what would you charge for a 13" x 18" of same design? No finish or feet, just bare wood.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Pricing really depends somewhat on what wood I have in stock at the time. If I've got some kiln dried wood already cut to approximate size, that'll save me some time. If I have to order stock, that would affect the price as well. Shoot me an email at the address on my RUclips channel under the About tab, and I can try to get a better ball park price.
How long did this project take you roughly, and I love the 3d effect, it came out beautifully.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and commenting. I really need to do a better job of tracking my time on projects. The real issue with this one was the clamp up time because I was limited with how much I could do with the amount of clamps that I had. Each of the mosaic glue ups took a day because of dry time, but realistically that's not total time spent, it's wait time. If I had enough clamps, I'd say that you could probably knock this project out in 3 or 4 days (allowing for glue drying time). First day would be getting your pieces cut and sanded to dimension and then a glue up. Second day would be glue the individual mosaic patterns into a single panel, day three would be cutting the panel into strips and gluing, and day four would be sanding and finish work.
This illusion drives my brain so kra kra! The question is will I cut myself with this tricky illusion happening under my work? Lol AMAZING, you are quite a Craftsman!❤
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. It can look pretty trippy at certain angles. It is certainly an eye catcher. 😵💫
Love the designs, only I like being able to use both sides of my cutting boards so feet are a no no for me. Great work man!
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I get your point on feet. Typically I only put feet on smaller boards as I can typically put finger holes or slots on a larger board. With this particular board it was just what the customer wanted.
Some beautiful wood working. While the walnut border is attractive I feel it is a little too "bold" and detracts from the beauty of the geometric board. As you debated in your commentary about whether to leave the edges square or use a round over, the round over tends to minimize how bold the edge is but still allows some accent.
Thanks for your additional comment here as well. The really interesting part is the number of viewers that bashed me for a cross grain glue up with the boarder. So far, so good and the customer I crafted it for isn't using it as a daily cutting board, but merely a decorative board for their island. Additionally, they care for their cutting board (in use, or not) with proper oiling and conditioning. I do agree though, I wouldn't put the border on another one. The edge effect is so much nicer without it.
This is really amazing and I'm looking forward to doing it -- how long were the pieces of stock when you started? that's the only one I've had a hard time figuring out!
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. The stock length was 18" long.
Nice work. Can I ask what dust collection system you run. Your ship / work area is so neat and clean. What clamps did you use on the final glue up? The orange ones with the big flat surface contact? Thanks. Great video 👍🏻
Hey Harry, thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Yeah, I'm a bit of a neat freak in the shop. I never know if I'm going to be in it just for a day, or several days, so I tend to do a little clean up at the end of the day unless I'm absolutely sure I'll be in the next day, even then sometimes I tidy up. On to your questions... The dust collection system is a Powertec DC5370. I mounted it to the concrete wall of my shop which happens to be in the basement. It uses a standard 4" collection hose and I've added a Y duct adapter so it collects dust from my table saw and drum sander. I've been really happy with it and it's not bad in terms of sound. Typically I've got music playing in the shop and sometimes forget to turn the dust collector off even when I'm done using it. smile.amazon.com/POWERTEC-DC5370-Collector-Micron-Filter/dp/B01M18RJOU/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=powertec+dust+collection&qid=1607289240&sr=8-1
The clamps are JORGENSEN 8018 Cabinet Master 18 Inch 90 Degree Parallel Steel Bar Clamp. I have pipe clamps as well, but after watching a video of someone using these, I bought 4 and have never looked back. They have a large flat, right angle face, and they are nice and stable on the work surface. Here's the link to them on Amazon. I have the 18" version, but they have larger ones and sometimes they are cheaper. smile.amazon.com/JORGENSEN-8018-Cabinet-Master-Parallel/dp/B00005R1HM/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=JORGENSEN+8018+Cabinet+Master+18+Inch+90+Degree+Parallel+Steel+Bar+Clamp&qid=1607289147&sr=8-1
I’m a machinist I’ve never done anything like that with wood but I’m good with close tolerances so I will give it a shot. Thanks for the video but I can tell you one thing I’m tired of that banjo lol appreciate it. Nice job on the cutting board.
Thanks for watching the video and commenting. I appreciate it. Just a heads up from some other woodworker comments I’ve received. If you are going to put the border on it then orient it in the same direction as the rest of the board. This board hasn’t experienced any issue with twisting or separating but there’s a higher degree of likelihood that it could over time versus one where the border is oriented endgrain. It may be best to leave the border off altogether. You get to see the pattern cascade over the edge which is more attractive.
Your presentation was excellent for its clarity and step-by-step approach! There’s a question however I’d like to ask you: if by cutting longer segments Ie., around four or 5 inches you could make a bowl blank and achieve a similar 3-D effect after turning it? Thank you
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. Absolutely you could glue this up as a bowl blank and turn it. I'd probably go with a 3" thickness when gluing up the final 3D pattern. Want to give it a try and share?
Hello! I’ve been baffled at how these optical illusion projects are created. Gorgeous work....your tutorial was on point along with your choice of music accompaniment. I do have a couple of questions, though. How long and how many times do you bathe the boards in the (food safe) oil? Also how many coats of conditioner do you recommend? Again, great video....
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. I typically only submerge the cutting board in food safe oil at the very end and only for a few minutes, then I place it on edge on a wire rack to let the excess oil drain back into my container and dry (typically over night). The next day I'll apply one coat of cutting board conditioner by hand and let that dry for several hours, if not over night. At that point I typically am turning it over to the customer who purchased it along with detailed instructions on how to clean and care for the cutting board.
Stunning cutting board! I’ve just started making them. Curious if you can provide links for the bin and rack you used for the mineral oil application. My wife didn’t take too kindly to me using her baking pans when I did mine. - Ed
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video, and for your question. I actually purchased the oil container/bin and rack at Walmart. It's a Sterilite brand is 24" x 15" x 6" and has a capacity of 25 quarts. I usually only put a gallon or so of food safe oil in it which is enough to cover most of the cutting boards that I do. The rack was also purchased at Walmart and is expandable. When not expanded it's about 18 inches long by 12 inches wide and is about 5 inches tall, so it fits perfectly in the container. I can keep it in the container and lock the top in place and slide it out of the way knowing that dust and other items won't end up in the oil. Hope this helps. Love the work on your channel, and am now a subscriber!
Really nice cutting board, and I love the 3D effect. I'm a bit surprised you didn't use mitered corners with the outer border, but that doesn't take away from the beauty of the piece itself.
Thanks for stopping by to watch the video and comment. The border was really just a last minute decision so I went with a simple butt joint, but it could definitely been done with a mitered joint. I've been taking a little bit of flack just for putting a border around it and it not being oriented end grain. I probably should have added some dowels for structural support, plus it would have been a really nice visual feature as well.
@@DEJaegerWoodworking I appreciate you taking the time to show and tell us every step, and it's always a learning curve, even when you are duplicating something you've already done several times before because you can always think of some way to enhance or improve it. Have a safe and Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year, and straight cuts always.
@@stanwiggins3423 Agreed, we're all here to learn. I've incorporated many of the tips and tricks I've received from viewers of the past couple of years. Techniques can always be improved upon, and sometimes a different set of eyes on a project can lead to some great tips for the next time. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Miters would’ve been boring, too picture “framey”. This was done better I feel but all a matter of aesthetics.
